Antillectual have premiered another new song from their upcoming full-length, Start From Scratch. “Cut The Ground From Under Our Feet” is the fifth track on the album and features a guest vocal spot from Propagandhi‘s Chris Hannah. Hannah had this to say about the song:
“I must admit, I’ve only spent about 5 minutes on a skateboard in my entire life, so while I won’t pretend that I’m either familiar or interested in skate culture, I will say that what I understand the message of the song to be – a lament of the brazen commodification of something you love – resonates pretty strongly with me. Of course, as long as we live in a world where we teach young people that making money takes priority over compelling art, principled sport, democratic politics and humane sciences, brazen commodification will be the rule.”
